The Ontario government is contributing more than $16 million to the construction of a $22 million multi-use community centre in Bracebridge with a 1,000-seat arena, public library, shared community hall, and accessible indoor multi-use field house.
โEveryone in Bracebridge knows that both the local arena and library are old and outdated and the community needs new facilities,โ said Parry Sound-Muskoka MPP Norman Miller. โThat is why I am so happy to see our government support the construction of the new Bracebridge Multi-Use Community Centre.โ
โConstruction will create jobs now and the community centre will benefit families and the community for years to come.โ
Construction of the Bracebridge Multi-Use Community Centre will cost approximately $22 million.
Across the province and over the next 10 years, Ontario is investing approximately $320 million and Canada is investing approximately $407 million under the Community, Culture and Recreation infrastructure stream of the ICIP. This stream supports the construction of new facilities and upgrades to existing facilities that improve community infrastructure (community centres, libraries), recreational venues (arenas, recreational spaces) and cultural spaces (theatres, museums).
